Quotes:
“It’s just so important to make things personalized and to make sure people have friends. Cliques will naturally form, [but] make sure they’re not exclusive cliques, because at the end of the day, we only remember how we feel about things.” [Nick, 5:22]
“You really need to know your audience individually in order to foster connections with your studio, and make reasons for people to come back.” [Megan, 9:28]
“That is a huge sense of community, when you have no horse in the running, no skin in the game, and you are just rooting for someone else to achieve something. I mean, what better feeling is there than that, when people are genuinely happy for others to do something?” [Nick, 17:13]
